Transform your conservatory with insulated roof panels (Advertising feature)

Conservatories are usually constructed to add extra living space to a home, often in the hope that they will become an extra lounge, a dining room, home office or playroom.

But a lot of people find however, that from mid-November through until about mid-March, their conservatory is just too cold to pleasantly sit in without spending a small fortune on heating it and then from mid-June through until about the end of September, that same space is unbearably hot during the day.

So what’s the answer? Fitting a solid roof to your conservatory, according to GreenSpace Conservatories, a family-run business established in 2013 and have since helped over 1,000 customers to transform their conservatories.

“In 2010 the planning laws were relaxed and in the majority of cases, you can now fit a solid roof to your conservatory without planning permission,” said Brennan and Bea who run the company.

“This means better insulation, keeping the room warmer in the winter and cooler in the summer, and a room that you can use all year round.

“There are a few different options to fitting a solid roof on your conservatory, most of which require major upheaval and disruption. There is, however, now an alternative option that will transform your room from an unusable space to a beautiful room in less than one day!

“Green Space Ltd is a family run company. We specialise in transforming conservatories. Our roof panels are lightweight and offer eight times better insulation than a polycarbonate roof.

“With U-values of 0.29, they will keep your conservatory at a comfortable temperature all year round.  What’s more, the panels are manufactured to measure off site, so installation generally takes less than a day, and we always aim to ensure that your roof conversion is as non-disruptive as possible. We are the sole supplier of this system in the South, our system is compatible with most conservatories, old and new – plus it comes with a ten year guarantee.

“Your conservatory that was too cold to eat your breakfast in the morning, could be lovely and cosy by dinner time. Transform your conservatory in one day – contact us today on 01793 208 002 or find us online at www.greenspaceconservatories.co.uk and see what a difference a day makes!

Please see our advert below for our special offer.”

Customer Quotes:

“The conservatory is now used throughout all seasons of the year and is far more comfortable to sit in whatever the weather outside.” – Mr & Mrs Gibson, Portishead

“I’ve already turned the underfloor heating down. Lovely job guys, thank you!” – Anne Bird, Bristol.

“What a difference a day makes as the saying goes, and yes, that’s all it took to install.” – Mr & Mrs Barber, Wells.

  • Frome woman takes on open water swim challenge for women’s health

A local woman with endometriosis is aiming to complete nine open water swims this month, reflecting the average nine years it takes to get a diagnosis in the UK.

Poppy Taylor, a PhD student, started the challenge just six weeks after having surgery for endometriosis.

Endometriosis is a whole-body inflammatory condition in which cells similar to those lining the womb grow elsewhere. Symptoms can include heavy, painful periods, pelvic pain, bladder and bowel issues, fertility issues and fatigue. There is currently no cure.

Poppy said, “I first saw a GP about my symptoms at 19 and, as these got worse, I spent years going back and forth but with no answers. At one point I was misdiagnosed with IBS and essentially told I was making it up. It wasn’t until I was 26 when a scan for another health issue found endometriomas (ovarian cysts caused by endometriosis) that I was eventually put on the path for surgery.

  • Young rugby trio represent county

Three players from Frome RFC Academy have represented Somerset at under-17 level.

Angus, Leo and Stan played their part in the county side’s impressive 29-10 away victory over Cornwall earlier this month.

  • Electric bus launched in Frome

A new, 16-seat electric bus has been launched in Frome providing the town with the latest generation of passenger vehicles.

Somerset Council has launched its first public service electric bus with the 30 service in Frome. The vehicle is low floor, easily accessible, wheelchair friendly and comes with zero emissions.

The new vehicle complements the fleet of electric First buses already running on routes across the county. Somerset Council says it is a ‘lifeline’ for residents needing to reach town centre services and being electric, is more sustainable and less reliant on fossil fuels.

  • Frome woman takes on 63-marathon challenge to mark 63rd birthday

A keen runner from Frome is aiming to cover the equivalent distance of 63 marathons this year as part of a charity challenge linked to her age.

Julie Cullen, who turns 63 this year and was born in 1963, is running the equivalent of 63 marathons over the course of 2026 to raise funds for Somerset Sight and Cancer Research UK.

To fit the challenge around her self-employed work in education, Julie runs at least 10km, around six miles, at 6am most days.

Since starting in January, she has completed the equivalent of 20 marathons. She said, “Some mornings I don’t know if I really want to but as soon as I get out, I am absolutely fine. I turn 63 this year and was born in 1963, so I felt I had to do something to mark that.”

Julie is fundraising for Somerset Sight, which provides practical support for blind and visually impaired people across Somerset.

  • Safety concerns continue over pothole ‘epidemic’ 

Potholes in Frome continue to cause safety concerns among residents, with reports that the situation has not improved.

After more than 100 people contacted the Frome Times earlier this year, one resident has highlighted several areas still in need of urgent attention.

They pointed to a “dangerous cluster” of potholes at the junction between New Road and Wallbridge Road, saying traffic is being forced to slow almost to a stop to avoid damage.

“It feels really dangerous and is an accident waiting to happen,” the resident said. “I have encountered cars nearly going into the back of my vehicle because I am having to completely slow down to get across the road. I don’t know why we have to get to the point where people have safety concerns before the local authorities listen and take action.”

  • Pop-up shop closes after £37,000 fundraising success

A pop-up charity shop run by Frome Rotary Club has raised £37,000 in just five months for four charities.

The shop, based in the Westway Precinct, has now closed after raising the funds for Fair Frome, We Hear You (WHY), the Frome Skatepark Project and End Polio Now.

The club, which celebrated the centenary of its charter in Frome in December, opened the shop in the former Post Office premises as part of its centenary programme.

Although the original plan had been to close the shop after Christmas as stock levels fell, the club decided to continue after learning that the WHY Appeal urgently needed to raise funds by the end of March.

President Richard Lines said, “We met WHY CEO Lucy Kitchener and decided to keep the shop going. We appealed for donations from the Frome community and dedicated all proceeds to WHY for the seven weeks leading up to the end of the appeal in March.”

  • Exhibition displays Frome lockdown memories

An exhibition sharing images and items from Frome during the Covid lockdown is on display at the town’s museum.

The exhibition includes images of deserted streets during lockdown, alongside photographs of residents during the period. A cabinet also features items from the time, including an original letter sent to households by then Prime Minister Boris Johnson, toilet rolls, face masks and Covid testing kits.

In early 2020, Frome Museum asked local photographers to take part in a project capturing the town’s streetscapes, with the images now also on display.

  • Frome charity recognised at Royal Garden Party

Members of a Frome charity have been recognised for their community work after attending a Royal Garden Party at Buckingham Palace.

Frome Birth Talk, which supports new, expecting and bereaved parents, was nominated to attend the event on Friday 8th May, hosted by the Prince and Princess of Wales, William and Catherine.

Frome Birth Talk’s Director, Suzy Cristinacce, and Operations Manager, Lucy Hill, attended the outdoor event alongside others recognised for their work within charitable organisations.

Suzy said, “It was wonderful to have Frome Birth Talk recognised in such a public and celebratory way. Being such a small team, we can sometimes forget what a big difference our charity makes to people in our community and so to be formally recognised for our work at this major event was fantastic.”
